Good -
ISM!
Your heart beats over one hun
dred thousand times each day.
One hundred thousand supplies of
good or bad blood to your brain.
Which is it?
If bad, impure blood, then your
brain aches. You are troubled
with drowsiness yet cannot sleep.
You are as tired in the morning
as at night. You have no nerve
power. Your food does you but
little good.
Stimulants, tonics, headache
powders, cannot cure you; but

will. It makes the liver, kidneys,
skin and bowels perform their
proper work. It removes ajl im
purities from the blood. And it
makes the blood rich in its life

A New Parrot Story.
A maiden lady of a certain town
in Cornwall owned a parrot, which
somehow acquired the disagreeable
habit of observing at frequent inter
vals: “I wish the old lady would
die.” This annoyed the bird’s owner
who spoke to her curate about it.
I think we can rectify the matter,”
Teplied the good woman. “1 also
have a parrot but he is a righteous
bird, having been brought up in the
way he should go. I will lend you
jny parrot, and I trust his influence
will reform that depraved bird of
yours.” The curate's bird was
placed in the same room which the
wicked one, and as soon as the two
had become accustomed to each
other, the bad bird remarked: “I
wish the old lady would die.”
“Whereupon the clergyman's bird !
rolled his eyes and in a solemn ac
cent added: “We beseech Thee to
hear us, good Lord!” The story got
out injite parish, and for several Sun
days it was neccessary to omit the
litany at the church services.—

a business woman says to such sufferers:
Mrs. C. W. Mansfield, of 58 Farrar St., Detroit, Mich., says:
“ A complication of female ailments kept me awake nights and wore me out.
I could get no relief from medicine and hope was slipping away from me. A
young lady in my employ gave me a box of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale Peo
ple. I took them and was able to rest at night for'the first time in months. I j
bought more and took them and they cured me as they also cured several other i
' people to my knowledge. I think that if you should ask any of the druggists of
Detroit, who'are the best buyers of Dr. Williams’Pink Pills they would say the '
young women. These pills certainly build up the nervous system and many a
young woman owes her life to them.
“Asa business woman I am pleased to recommend them as they did more for
me than any physician and I can give Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People
credit for my general good health to-day.

he would give sl. Just as he sat
down, however, a lumy of plaster fell
from the ceiling and hit him on the

Flight Of A Cannon Shot.
The longest distance ever covered
by a cannon shot is said to be fifteen
miles, but that probably was several
miles within the possible limit, ac
cording to Captain E. L. Zalinski,
the retired army officer, who ranks
among the highest authorties in the
world on munitions of war. On the
point of possible range Captain Zalin
ski says: “Under existing conditions
and with the gun’s powder and pro
jectiles available, I believe it is pos
sible to fire a shot a distance of eigh
teen miles. The distance will be
greater when a powder is produced
that will exert a uniform pressure on
the gun throughout the course of the
projectile from breech to muzzle.”

Cutting Ice And Hay.
A grasshopper wasted all the frosty
days of winter in gaily skating o’er the
frozen lake, while a prudent ant im
proved each gloomly hour by cutting
ice and storing it away.
When the summer was come and
the thermometer registered 108 de
grees in the shade, the grasshopper
approached the ant for a loan of $3
But the aat, who loaned money only
on good security said: “What were
you doing all last winter?”
“Skating.”
“Ah, well! Pitch hay now.”
So the angry grasshopper went to
the hayfield, where he dropped dead
from sunstroke, wiiile the ant sat on
the shady side of his house, drinking
ice-cold lemonade and reading French
novels.

the Baltimore'American, the boarder
with the freckles on h;s nose contin
ued: “Yes, it really gives me great
pleasure to notice that the butter is
convalesing!”
The man with the barbed wire
beard looked unhappy, and an expres
sion of contempt, not unmixed, how
ever, with curiosity fitted across the
face of the landlady.
“Convalescing!" she replied; “What:
do you mean? ’
The man with the yellow whiskers
smiled expectantly.
The man with the treckles on his
nose nerved himself for the reply:
“Because it grows stronger- every
day.”
During the excitement that follow
ed the man with the double chin
helped himself to the last slice ot
bread on the table.
